MR A. W. HOGG.
ADDRESS AT AUCKLAND. By Telegraph—Press Association. AUCKLAND, July 23. Mr A. W. Hogg, M.P. for Masterton, and ex-Minister for I.a>U' # , dressed a crowded public meeting tonight. In the course of his speech he said it was only owing to the monstrously unjust laws of this country that the land was not properly distributed. The King Country, which the Government allowed to go to waste, could accommodate tens of thousands. He advocated higher wages and better conditions for labour. He believed a State Bank would ultimately be insisted upon. For tbe last twelve months New Zealand' had been in the grasp of the money-lenders who had been hauling in their harvest. No country was so ripe for reform as New Zealand, and he declared we were on the threshold of momentous reform.
